migrate to esp32-p4

Post by savenlid »

I know you will think this is crazy.

But.....

I plan to migrate into esp32-p4 and freertos ( esp idf environment )
Possibly add a small fpga for some front-end off-loading.

USB, Web-HMI, Ethernet, wifi, and native lcd display support.
Lots of memory and internal disk on flash.


Working on it.

Will be some major rewrites along the way, I plan in introducing some game-changers never seen before.

What feature would be added by esp32? Cheaper, faster, more robust? I'm not sure I'm understanding what features would be added. FPGA might allow more accurate crank decode or less jitter. However those don't seem to be a problem currently.

Many STM32's have a 10+ year mfg guarantee. That's handy as you can plan that you won't be doing major overhauling for years to come. Instead strained resources can focus on new development.
